Kick-Off Sunday

Pender is seeking a Kick-Off Sunday Coordinator!

Every Year Pender kicks off our church year in September with fun, food and a time of fellowship. It’s a time to welcome everyone back to church after a busy summer and to re-connect with the activities in the life of the church. It is also a time to welcome newcomers and introduce them to Pender!

Pender is in need of a servant to coordinate this awesome church-wide event which will be held on Sunday, September 21, 2015, following the 11:00 service. We have many servants willing and eager to serve along side of you!

Sunday at Pender UMC ~ Sunday, June 21st

17 Jun

Please join us this Sunday, June 21, in worship at the 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 Services.

Sermon Series: STORIES

June 21 – Annual Conference Sunday. “Father Knows Best”

Using Romans 8:18-25 as a base, we will take a closer look at the significance of Father’s Day from a variety of perspectives – most importantly, God’s. Thom Jones will be preaching at 8:15 and 11:00am

What is the Annual Conference?

An Annual Conference is a regional body that governs much of the life of the “Connectional Church.” Sound confusing? We agree. Chuck will try to make sense of “Annual Conferences” when he makes a conference call.

Listen to past sermons in the Pender Podcast.
